About NVIDIA Corporation

Company Description

NVIDIA awakened the world to the power of computer graphics when it invented the GPU in 1999. We have since led the industry with breathtaking graphics on computers ranging from smartphones to game consoles to engineering workstations. Our expertise in GPUs has led to breakthroughs in parallel processing, empowering scientists with access to ultra-efficient supercomputers.

Company History

Founded in 1993, NVIDIA has quickly become the worldwide leader in graphics processors and media communications devices. In fact, NVIDIA was the first 3D graphics semiconductor company to deliver a complete top-to-bottom family of 3D solutions.

Our mission is simple: Build a great company and be the most important 3D graphics company in the world.

Led by our co-founders — Jen-Hsun Huang (President and CEO), Curtis Priem (Chief Technical Officer) and Chris Malachowsky (VP of Hardware Engineering) — our employees are committed to developing innovative technologies that deliver stunning multimedia experiences. And they're doing it around the world, at NVIDIA offices located in the United States (AZ, CA, MA, NC, TX, and WA) as well as in England, France, Germany, Japan, Singapore, and Taiwan.

Wherever the location, NVIDIA makes a significant investment in its people — in addition to its methodologies, technology and brand — to ensure the Company continues to deliver to its customers a unique competitive advantage.

What's this commitment and investment mean in our everyday working lives? Quite simply, it means that NVIDIA offers a challenging, high-energy and rewarding work experience.

To support NVIDIA's employees, the HR team is committed to delivering programs and services to the nth degree. That means you can be sure that working at NVIDIA just may be the greatest experience in your professional life.

Our commitment also extends beyond the NVIDIA workplace to the communities in which we work and live. Just as the Company strives to maintain its leadership position in the graphics world, it is also committed to making a lasting and positive impact in the lives of the people in our community.

Through our corporate donations and fundraising program, we currently support such organizations as the American Red Cross, the Second Harvest Food Bank, the Humane Society, and other non-profit organizations.
